It's kind of funny, the size of the NSA is the very reason we fear them, thus the very reason we fear them is the very reason we can't shut them down.

- igravious 12y agoVery Catch-22 don't you think? Joseph Heller would have been proud to come up with that line. I see us as being at a point socially compared to where Stallman was when he wanted to fix a printer and couldn't. He had to build another system from the ground up to circumvent the existing one. That's what I think we have to do. Federated encrypted social media and messaging. It'll take a generation. There's no point in going through the courts, we need something like the GPL and GNU but for privacy.
